EEPROM boots w/o addressing

Mar 03, 2007 1 Replies

Simple , low cost , EEPROM , that



spits out data from address



0000 , just by powering it up ,

and clocking it .



Does it exist ?



Its always bothered me to address



a simple low speed , serial device .



Its LUDDITE STUPID !!



They could have built them to



boot w/o addressing .....


and better !



There's enuf pins to use 2 pins to



be jumpered on the board to select



which boot block to boot , w/o addressing .



I'm building a UART loader .



The EEPROM will establish comm



by sending all the right stuff to an ARM



MCU and then continue on with loading



a program to the ARM .



No, it doesn't exist.... what about processors that vector to FFFF and go downwards????
